No more than I expect of a Packer.

That's how I felt about cold when I was young.

With a high of 58 in our part of Arizona yesterday, the parkas came out.

Laydeez,

Never stop wearing yoga pants.

Sincerely,
All the men in the world.

This is why the Green Bay Packers are really "America's Team."

Howard said...

That's right Tim. Just like nothing says Christmas like Vermont. Fuck the Cowboys and the horse they rode in on.

Some people just run warm. Football bodies usually do…

I once had a caddie from Sheboygan and he hated the Packers. Vikings all the way, he said. America’s team indeed…

If that's in Las Vegas ("the Las Vegas Raiders will play host to AFC West nemesis Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night"), it's not 8 degrees, it's somewhere between 35 and 60 degrees.

Growing up in Chicago (with most of my relatives living in Wisconsin) I learned to despise the Packers. It was a really intense rivalry back in the day before the McCaskeys took over the Bears' management.

Over the last 30 years or so, I have come to admire the Packers as a solid organization that produces good teams for their fans along with the Steelers, Ravens and Patriots. The Bears are simply a job opportunity for the McCaskey clan who are otherwise unhirable due to their collective stupidity and sense of privilege.

Go Pack!

Great shout out to Door County (he was recently given the key to the county). He does spend a lot of time up here (but…I do believe it was colder in GB last night than here.) That’s one heck of a torso he’s got there. Certainly a better look than some of the fans who took off their shirts during the game. They definitely had a lot more insulation.

This is a perfect illustration of John Edwards "Two Americas"... we see a person of color, unable to afford a coat, while a privileged white person, dressed warmly, watches and does nothing.

While Antonio Brown didn't even have a shirt. Lucky he wasn't playing in Green Bay yesterday.

Rodgers owns Packer fans.

Ralph L said...

I wager he isn't going commando under those overalls.

We reached 78 Saturday (a record), 70 yesterday, half inch of snow this morning, low 20s tonight.

“Rodgers owns Packer fans.“ says Butkus51
LOL. Love it.

It is 63 degrees in LA today and I'm FREEZING. Used to live in Wisconsin and felt fine most of the time. Goes to show how we (I) become soft.

I know how you feel, Ryan. The temps finally dropped a bit here in SWFL, mid 70s today, but I had to wear a sweatshirt and crocs to take the dogs on their midnight walk, I think it was 59.

We get soft quick. When I first moved to Miami, this time of year it was often in the low 50s at 6 am when I reported to the plant. I was still in NE mode and was comfortable in a t-shirt, my crew would be wearing gloves, wool hats, and heavy coats. I told them that where I came from, you get 50s in Jan, you drive to work with the top down.
